U.S. officials are trying to distance themselves from recent Israeli military actions in Syria and Gaza, which have raised tensions and the possibility of America being drawn into the conflict. Israel’s strike on an Iranian embassy in Damascus, killing senior commanders, and an attack on a humanitarian convoy in Gaza have led to global outrage. Iran is expected to retaliate, holding the U.S. accountable due to its support of Israel. The U.S. is calling for investigations into the attacks, but continues to provide military aid to Israel, sparking criticism.
